Fr. James Brent is back! In this episode he and Jess dive into charismatic gifts. Fr. James and Jess discuss:

• The difference between a natural talent and a charism
• Doesn't Lumen Gentium say we shouldn't seek extraordinary gifts?
• How can people grow in use of their gifts without focusing on them too much?
